SUPPLY CHAIN FINANCE

Working Capital Should Not be a Zero Sum Game

Supply chain finance is a way forward for organizations looking to unlock cash trapped in the supply chain, strengthening the relationship between buyers and sellers.

Supply Chain Finance Benefits

A Win-Win for

Buyers and Suppliers

Typically, optimizing working capital is a zero-sum game where you extend payment terms to the detriment of your suppliers. Supply chain finance changes the equation by letting you provide early payment flexibility and certainty to suppliers, supporting a healthier and more robust supply chain, all while improving your liquidity.

How Supply Chain Finance works

Offer Early Payments With Upside

Supply chain finance lets you utilize a third-party funding source to fund supplier early payments in exchange for invoice discounts. You then pay the funder at the maturation of payment terms so you can hold onto your cash longer. Programs are often introduced in tandem with a terms extension.
